This is a bummer to hear. Slumberland Records’ Brown Recluse has decided to call it quits. The genteel indie pop outfit released a statement (part of which is below) this past weekend via the band’s Facebook profile before Tim Meskers’ performance opening for Gruff Rhys at PhilaMOCA. The band still plans to release a final collection of unreleased material, alternative mixes and demos towards the end of the year. Thanks to The Key for bringing it to our attention.
Brown Recluse has formally dissolved its collective efforts in performance and production. Work is in progress on a collection of unreleased tracks, alternate mixes, and demonstration recordings titled "Odd Ends," which should be available by the end of the year.
We offer our most sincere thanks to all our colleagues, Slumberland Records, Dead Format, and our fans and friends for their endless support. You helped make it beautiful.
